Your hand is declared dead if: (a) You fold or announce that you are folding whenfacing a bet or a raise. (b) You throw your hand away in a forward motion causinganother player to act behind you (even if not facing a bet). (c) In stud, when facing a bet,you pick your upcards off the table, turn your upcards facedown, or mix your upcardsand downcards together. (d) The hand does not contain the proper number of cards forthat particular game (except at stud a hand missing the final card may be ruled live, and atlowball and draw high a hand with too few cards before the draw is live). (e) You act on ahand with a joker as a holecard in a game not using a joker. (A player who acts on a handwithout looking at a card assumes the liability of finding an improper card, as given inIrregularities, rule #8.) (f) You have the clock on you when facing a bet or raise and exceedthe specified time limit. 2. Cards thrown into the muck may be ruled dead. However, ahand that is clearly identifiable may be retrieved and ruled live at management’s discretionif doing so is in the best interest of the game.

Cardsthrown into another player’s hand are dead, whether they are faceup or facedown.
